Thanks for regularly posti...Merry Christmas FerFal.<br />Thanks for regularly posting on your blog. Your insights are all very helpful, interesting and enjoyable to read. We Americans are receiving first hand knowledge of what it will eventually be like here in America. You should come to America. The lights don't go out too often over here. At least not in our neck of the woods. :) <br />America is still sitting pretty and prosperous at this point in time. But all the new rules and regs are being put in place now so we are ripe for destruction. Personally, I don't see that the TSHTF in 2011. I don't see it happening in 2012. I could be totally wrong. Could happen suddenly. What I see is serious problems starting in 2012. I think Americans will revolt and go to war before they give in to all of this. But one day, eventually--we will be overcome. I'm guessing America will look much like Argentina in the next 5-10 years. In the next 20-40years, we'll be in the midst of the "Abomination of Desolation" spoken of by Jesus Christ and the prophets. My mother disagrees. She thinks the millenium will be here within 10 years. I just don't see that happening so fast. THe Lord said do not be deceived, first famine & pestilence, then persecution, beheadings, war, anti christ. THen many will be offended. And finally the abomination of desolation. When we see that then we know his coming is nigh. Right now there are so many great people around the world and much freedom safety and prosperity (at least here). Then Christ says after the abomination of desolation, people will profess to be Christ(can you imagine people doing that now? Seems so unreal). But we will all know when and who the Lord is because he'll come with all power and glory. Every knee will bow and every tongue confess. But all of this will take time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-47839181971385533592010-12-25T17:07:18.395-08:002010-12-25T17:07:18.395-08:00Three generations live together in Southern Califo...Three generations live together in Southern California, from the LA Times:<br /><br />http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-crowded-house-20101225,0,1851236,full.story<br /><br />Expect a LOT more of this. Willowalk, the "gated community" mentioned in the article, has had so many foreclosures and so many homes becoming rentals that it's now a slum, despite being only 7 years old or so. Look up older articles on the area on the Times site. So basically you have three generations living in a drug and gang infested rathole of an area in the far distant suburbs of Los Angeles. And there's a lot more-many of the huge houses there are now occupied by huge illegal immigrant families. I think that the large number of slum rentals and abandoned homes available for squatting will tamp down any problems with shantytowns for a while.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-34278560600999298582010-12-24T23:21:01.242-08:002010-12-24T23:21:01.242-08:00Me thinks this will be very close to home here in ...Me thinks this will be very close to home here in the US, very soon. Any one of a number of things could set things off, and all the rest of them would then go off on us as well. I'm figuring no more than a couple of years, perhaps as little as months. Hope I'm wrong, but I doubt it. <br /><br />And thanks for sharing with us your experiences/observations. One never knows when some of it will be helpful. I know I don't comment often, but I, and I'm sure others, really appreciate your pulling back the curtain on what things are probably going to get like.<br /><br />Merry Christmas to all.Kurthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01374113384440275283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-3893324244776544932010-12-24T20:38:59.636-08:002010-12-24T20:38:59.636-08:00Milady got a pistol for Christmas for just this re...Milady got a pistol for Christmas for just this reason.<br /><br />I am a long-haired freaky people guy, so if I could be sure of $300, I'd sell.

Argentina has been declining for 50 years at least, and as recently as 2000 USA was a first world country, world's biggest economy, people in Silicon Valley buying Lamborghinis and etc. <br /><br />In 50 years, sure that will be USA. Or it could happen within 10-20 years, after people realize that the government has no intention of paying its debts. It will though, and that's what our future will be like. <br /><br />Oh, and Merry Christmas Ferfal, may your god Jesus watch over you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-77346292690331102122010-12-24T15:16:20.438-08:002010-12-24T15:16:20.438-08:00Merry Christmas, Ferfal.Merry Christmas, Ferfal.Don Williamsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-51917128084348501712010-12-24T11:56:52.611-08:002010-12-24T11:56:52.611-08:00Hmmm...maybe I WILL visit that Gunshow next weeken...Hmmm...maybe I WILL visit that Gunshow next weekend...scary stuff, FerFAL.
